Sewing to Give Away

I love to sew. Even more than I love to sew, I love to give away what I sew. Don't get me wrong, I love having my etsy shop, and the money I make through it helps to support my sewing "habit." But when it comes down to it, I love to give stuff away.

So it's nice for me when I receive requests from various people asking for doll clothes. Most often the clothes are going to be sold or auctioned off to raise money for various charities (and once to help raise money in support of a family adopting a child from overseas). But the latest request came from a young blogger who was looking for some doll clothes to use for a giveaway on her blog. Me being me, I said yes. After waiting a few days for the extremely cold weather to abate I shipped off a handmade robe and two-piece pajama set.

Earlier this afternoon I received a note from her telling me that she had completed a photo shoot of her dolls at the spa and used the bathrobe I sent for it.

When I clicked over to see it, I was thoroughly impressed. Clearly she put a lot of time and effort into the feature and I loved to see that she had created most of her props. And they looked great!
So if you want to see the work she did and the bathrobe I made for her to give away, click through to see her blog post. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. :)
